A fight over who was going to feed a dog led to a Hull man’s arrest recently. William Clifford Smith, 46, 80 Reese Lane, was charged with battery after he reportedly picked up his girlfriend of 14 years and threw her out the door of their home.

According to the report, the victim told officers she and her boyfriend were fighting about feeding the dog and that he told her to leave. She said that while she was getting her belongings, he picked her up and threw her out the door while she was carrying something from their bedroom. The officer noted that there were marks on her left arm and wrist and that she had a cut on her knee, but refused medical treatment at the scene.

Other arrests on file at the sheriff’s office last week included:

•Jeremiah Hutchison, 31, 755 Childers Road, Colbert, was arrested for pedestrian under the influence of alcohol or drugs after an officer found him walking in dark clothing in his lane of travel. According to the report, the man failed to move and the officer had to go into the oncoming lane to avoid him.

•Roger Howard Clark, 46, 2156 Hwy. 106 North, Ila, was charged with simple assault FVA after he reportedly pinned his daughter down and stepped on her feet and legs during an argument. The officer noted there was chafing on the daughter’s legs and feet.

•Richard Ansel, 51, 4724 Nowhere Road, Nicholson, DUI/drugs, no tag, possession of marijuana less than announce and weaving over roadway.

This story is SO STUPID he went to jail and probably lost his girlfriend of 14 years BUT he probably says she still had to feed the dog because he couldn't, he was in jail? WHAT DID THIS PROVE? He probably lost his girl and still had to bail out of jail? Now he has fines and court cost to pay AND NO WOMAN?

As with all these sorry dometic disputes, it's not about the dog. And why is a guy 'having' a "WOMAN" of such paramount importance? The days of women as property are, thankfully, long gone in this country. Maybe that was the problem; he failed to get this concept.

Anonymous- Lets not turn this into another case of men trying to hold women back? If he had a son there there would have still been a fight. Lets call it what it is: He was to lazy to do it so he thought he could put it off on someone else and when they didn't jump he got mad and trouble started? That's what's wrong with the world today? Everyone tries to put their duties off on someone else

That's right anytime you hear of a case that involves a man and a woman SOMEONE always has to say the man was trying to hold the woman back and how now women have equal rights? If they really believe that then WHY COULDN'T THE WOMAN JUST FEED THE STUPID DOG? When did feeding the dog become the MANS job? Most dogs don't care who feeds them as long as someone does.
